Back in the ancient times, the glass goblet was a sign of royalty while on the other hand the ceramic goblet meant that you were not fortunate enough to be “upper class”, as we would call it these days. In these times though, anyone can own a glass goblet. You could be living in a trailer in the middle of the woods and if you really wanted to, you could pour your beer in a wine glass and drink it like that. These days, it is not a sign of royalty, it’s really is not a sign at all.
